    I have two standard replies to the question

    "Aye Laddie"

    "Aye Lassie"

    After that they nearly always explain why they asked.

    I don't think I have ever been asked if I was Scottish, but there have been occasions when there has been an assumption that I was, even though I do not have a Scottish accent!

    Speaking of stereotyping, I can't stand outside a bar and smoke a cigarette without someone showing me their I.D. before they go in.

    He's got a good point, Bear, can't miss a chance to give a sales pitch! I usually respond with, "I am a wee bit Scottish, but it doesn't matter, because this is an AMERICAN style kilt! Anyone who wants to be more comfortable can wear one!" Then I go from there.

    Not that there aren't days that I consider getting a tartan jockstrap, and respond by flipping up the kilt and saying, "Aye, right down to me bollocks!"
